Mazzo From: Yorke, Samantha <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, March 27, 2015 3:34 PM To: Michael Connors Subject: Willing to give advice to Engineering Students? Dear Michael Joseph , Your contact information was available through the public Florida Board of Professional Engineers directory. At Florida State University, our 2,000+ Engineering Students seek to connect with Professional Engineers for advice on navigating their “backpack to briefcase” transition. To facilitate this interaction, the “ProfessioNole” Program offers students the chance to reach out to professionals throughout the community, country, and world and learn more about their field’s industry demands, career expectations, job outlook, and employment opportunities. Both alumni and friends of the University participate in ProfessioNole, making themselves available for student inquiries. What’s unique about our program is our partnership through the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering -- both Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University and Florida State University Engineering Students have access to this database. How much time is involved? Being a ProfessioNole Volunteer involves a minor time commitment and you can decline any requests as your schedule or preferences change. What if I live out of state? Actually, the majority of our ProfessioNole Volunteers do not live in the Tallahassee area. Students often will correspond with our ProfessioNole Volunteers via e-mail, telephone or Skype. How do I sign up? To register, visit the ProfessioNole site . We hope you will consider joining the ProfessioNole database as a volunteer to share industry knowledge and advice with our students.

This is not an accident: it is the product of land-use and zoning codes, which often prohibit nonindustrial uses of large, centrally located areas that would otherwise be in high demand for residential and commercial redevelopment. These policies are supposedly a bulwark against gentrification and the depredations of housing developers, as well as a means of preserving high-paying industrial jobs. But these benefits are often illusory, and they

Gov. Andrew Cuomo has directed the Department of Public Service to broad- en an investigation it is currently conducting into the moratorium and to consider alternatives to National Grid as a franchisee for some or all of the areas it currently serves if the problem is not resolved. For more on this story, go to page 10. IMPEACHMENT-KEEN Demonstrators held a protest rally outside U.S. Rep. Max Rose’s Bay Ridge office late last month to urge the pol to back the impeachment of President Donald Trump. Rose, who won his seat in 2018 and has earned a reputation as a centrist willing to work across the aisle on certain issues, has steadfastly refused to back impeachment.
